    It has always been a subboard of Christmas, it's just that Christmas has been renamed for the festive season from it's usual spcial occasions and celebrations title.

    The more annoying thing is that it has been moved as a subboard of discussion time, which means you have to be logged in to read it.

    Oh yes i see. Still, its very strange! Why the need to rename it and confuse people?!

    being a sub board of discussion time is really bloomin annoying too!

    Well that was confusing, i couldn't find the page, and I was just about to go into the discussion area to ask if anyone had seen it, and there it was! Weird!

    I logged in, clicked on my own name to find stuff I'd posted, went to a wedding thread that way and then looked to see where they'd moved it....bizarre, a bit of warning or some notice saying what they'd done might have been nice. And with all the MSE tips we share about bargain dresses, favours, making your own bouquets, haggling for deals on venues etc how do we not class as 'proper' moneysaving anymore????

    I just e-mailed them to ask why they've re-housed us and pointed out that just cos we like to chatter weddingy things doesn't make us any less MSE than marriages, holidays or techie people :)

    we've moved again!! lol

    we're now in 'For Who and where you are' that seems more appropriate i suppose!
